The first semi final of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific between defending champions, the Crusaders and the Blues tonight will determine who is the best fly-half in New Zealand.

Crusaders’ Richie Moun’ga will be up against the Blues’ Beauden Barrett in the highly anticipated game tonight.

With Moun’ga leaving the Crusaders at the end of the season, he will want to depart on a high note and obviously will want to win another Super Rugby Pacific title with the men in red and black.

On the other hand, Barrett will want to prove to the All Blacks selectors that they will not want to overlook him for selection this year especially when the Rugby World Cup is just around the corner.

Time will tell when the dust settles tonight in Christchurch when the Crusaders host the Blues.

The two teams meet at 7.05 tonight.

In the second semi final, the Chiefs will host the Brumbies at 7.05pm in Hamilton tomorrow.
